Is this image AI generated, /ic/? Various art subs on reddit are filled with such pictures of "pencil drawings" lately.
It's so fucking joever for artists.
>prompt picture>print it>"LOOK GUYS ITS REAL"people trying to cheat or otherwise trying to scam people really believe their ideas are the pinnacle of originality
>>7712803Photo filters already existed.
Is it really so easy to fool reddit mods?
>try this book out>get to the part where it says "at this point you should be thoroughly satisfied with how you draw your hand" >my drawings are still pisspoor despite following the instructions>get deeply demotivated Fuck whoever made this.
>>7710527You didn't make a viewfinder, did you? It's impossible to for your "after" to not be better than your "before" if you used one so I can safely assume you didn't
>>7710527oh, you're one of those people that was the target audience of the workbook that was published later
>>7710527howd i do?
Whenever an art instruction book uses anything other than the author's own artwork as the cover, you can be near 100% sure it's a worthless pile of crap.
>>7712826Not bad, not bad. Eyes a bit too large. Her left pupil so go all the way to the edge of her eye. You forgot her subtle muzzle. Her eyebrows should be much lighter. Her lips should be thinner. She should look less cute overall. But better than I could do, no doubt.
1: Post a brief backstory if your OC has one.2: Character design critique and discussion is welcome.3: Keep it fairly SFW. Lewds are fine but no explicit porn.4: This is NOT a request thread. Artist Only. No spamming OC/infodumps for multiple threads without delivering.5: Be sure to thank Drawfrens for their hard work as soon as you can, it's just common courtesy :^)Previous Thread: >>7661054
>>7711252writing like a true incel to tranny in the making.
Finished with her from last threadHer name is Tryga She's the current Right Hand Ma'am of Queen Shayatan and serves basicly as her Secretary and runs the Kingdom in her stead with a few exceptions. She's also the Judge of the Court and deals out the punishments herself no matter how severe. The Species she Belongs to are a rare variant of Werewolfs called Tricans
>>7711564No i Just Wish to fuck an incel woman with huge breasts
>>7711252
>>7712263Thanks for the drawing! Honestly, you're better than me at capturing the type of character I had in mind
Is this acceptable for 10 years of progress? How can I improve more, I feel like i'm very stuck, theres a lot more art in between that I can post if anyone wants to see more evidence
>>7711530Seems like a normal degree of progress. People hyperfocus on the like 2% of artists with a high degree of talent who make amazing rapid progress, while overlooking the overwhelming majority of people who make modest progress over a long period of time before topping out. They then shit on people who don't achieve the prebeg-to-pro in 5 years goal in order to convince themselves that said progress will be their progress, as opposed to the less shocking normal progress.
>>7711831>>7712265I draw almost every day and i try to do a full colored illustration so its about 2 hours a day, excercises no, i did master studies of my favorite artist Range Murata but i felt like i has no idea what i was doing, people always say art school is a meme but i feel like i would definitely benefit from a lesson based structure to advancing rather than flailing around unguided
>>7712565a colored illustration in 2 hours? how about try focusing on accuracy and cap yourself at like 20 hours. even for pros 10h+ is totally normal for bg + character fully rendered
>>7712571Wow thats a long time, my drawings are so simple i dont think i could take that long even if i tried, but i get ya, try use the extra time to ge even more detailed, ill give it a go. Ive got a simple drawing i started earlier today based on se feedback of trying to do more backgrounds instead, ill try take my time with it
Not sure if its what you people were talking about exactly but I branched out and spent all day drawing this, it's not an anime girl, its perspective and has a lot of background work, simple but I love the game this is based on so I thought why not, I actually think it turned out very good (though the perspective is a bit wonky still) I get what ya'll mean about branching out because this was a lot more fun and fulfilling than just drawing girl #100
For stupid questions and questions that don't deserve their own thread.Post here if you don't expect your thread to reach 100+ replies.
>>7712504Just get a light table and transfer the sketch. Or if you do it digitally just use another layer.
>>7712504There is also transparent paper. This helps too.
What are some rules of thumb for width/depth proportions?Also, is there a better term than width/depth?
>>7712505Talking about digital illustrations, it's usually the rendering that paralyses me
>>7712698>digital illustrationsThat is a stupid question. Make a back up save where you think it looks good and continue on.
I wanna start incorporating stories into my artworks, a lot of splash arts showing off a character often tell a story, along with artist like WLOP who do it often. I wanna know if anyone has any idea where i can find thematic references for this stuff.
>>7708016>https://www.everysingleframe.comgreat resource, thanks for the recommendation!

Diddy did nothing wrong. All they got was just an old video of him slapping a bitch, published to make him look bad.
>>7711981That's a nice ass
anyone remembers vodkuh/tsflippwhatever happened tothat guy
>>7707953well I'd imagine doing loli stuff paints a target on your back
the last thing i remember him saying on discord is that he was diagnosed with major depression so he probably roped

What is the point of this thread?
>>7711015To solve the mystery of the hodgepodge keyboard. Is it a code?
>>7711417Yes, it's a puzzle that reveals the talent code. A powerful boost to one's drawing talent that grants one an easy journey from beg to mid-int with a smooth and satisfying progression of skill with no plateaus

Let's talk about the different platforms people use for art. Requirements: - The platform has a significant number of posters- A significant subset of posters are good- users have identifiable accountsOff the top of my head:- instagram- artstation- twitterI know plenty about instagram and twitter's vibes/ecosystem, but I'm curious about artstation. It seems like there's a lot of really high-quality work there. Like a linkedin for artists. It's almost demoralizing because there's so many "looking for work" bios on people with pro-tier work.
>>7711939I'm phone posting right now but Thomas Romain is good too. His site is gone but just look up Thomas Romain perspective tutorial and there's a gold mine of info. A lot of bg stuff is just rehashed painting knowledge though
OP here>>7711929>>7711943>>7711939yeah this. Super insightful post, would love to see more examples of personal portfolio sites of people who are successful and working.
>>7712194What kind of job are you looking for in terms of industry portfolios?I can hook you up with a lot of the background artist portfolios.
>>7712235I'm not actively seeking a job rn, but I want to see what success looks like. I've been grinding figure fundamentals, blender, some landscape, some houdini and some coding for a decade and I can kinda make whatever I want, but it feels too 'open'. Do I want to make 2d animations? Sculpt? BG painting? sexy mograph particle sims? It's all lots of fun but I gotta decide what to work on to completion for portfolio to position myself best.
>>7712385Sounds like you need a structured project like making a solo small game, animation or comic. Or just do what I did and kind of force yourself into it by financially committing to a course
thoughts on my dog ? :^)
this thread will be bumped forever just like the painting dog threads
>>7711091It’s going to be bumped until anons post their work
:3
>>7708013you turned her into a scruffy hobo
>>7709511She’s so happy, I love it.
how do I successfully nip larp on social media? I draw Japanese enough >inb4 whystreet cred
>>7698928>>7706283this isnt the perma/beg/ seethe thread
>>7703045if you have to ask you wouldnt get it>>7705625sure but i want the most followers possible, instead of limiting myself to one group of people. i dont draw chud stuff anyways>>7706283lol fag
>>7711223
>>7695150You know anon, the reason why such a large portion of Japanese artists are so well liked is that they actually put in the work to improve and actually post drawings.
>>7696733lie nuke
It's over.
>>7708667I saw a few of them mentioning moving to picarto
Why did they shutdown? It's so joever
>>7708780they need more money to host all those ai images
>>7708667Most of the ones I was following said they were just going to streaming and just upload timelapses because it was too much of a hassle to setup on other websites. Probably the biggest lost from sketch dying.
>>7708414I don't believe I missed out on that
Whats the fastest way to keep consistent sprite scale across multiple sprites and backgrounds?
